Somewhere Over the Rainbow

I need to catch up on the last few days. Sam is staying with us for the weekend and he's keeping me a little busy! Thursday I woke up with Somewhere Over the Rainbow (the new version) in my head and for the first time since I began keeping track it was part of a dream. Someone was telling me that they hoped that someday they would find the end of the rainbow and I told them that I've been living "over the rainbow" for the past 6 years. Meaning: my life has been wonderful and perfect for the past 6 years. I woke up feeling so grateful for all that I have. Funny about the "6 years" part, though, since it was 6 years ago that Emily and Julia left for college. That was NOT a happy time, and although we've adjusted (and they now have been out of college for almost 2 years) I'm still happiest when one or more of my kids are home.

This weekend with Sam has been awesome and I'm grateful for him and for his parents for being so generous with us!
